Tam o' Shanter est un poème écrit par le poète écossais Robert Burns en 1790.
Edité initialement en 1791, c'est l'un des plus longs poèmes de Burns. Il est écrit dans un mélange d'anglais et d'écossais. Il raconte l'histoire d'un homme resté trop longtemps au pub et qui, sur le chemin du retour, est témoin de visions étranges.
